Shouldn't the pool at Chase Field be off-limits to opposing teams, especially if said team has just won its division?

Yes, but the Los Angeles Dodgers apparently don't care for such rules. Players took a dip in it after clinching the NL West on Thursday, even after they were told not to return to the field after celebrating in the clubhouse.

"I could call it disrespectful and classless, but they don't have a beautiful pool at their old park and must have really wanted to see what one was like," Arizona CEO Derrick Hall, a former Dodgers executive, said in a statement to the Arizona Republic (via ESPNLosAngeles.com).

Diamondbacks infielder Willie Bloomquist joined the chorus.

"I think it's tired and disrespectful," Bloomquist said, according to ESPN Los Angeles. "It's surprising, because they have a lot of veteran guys on that team that I thought were classier than that."

Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw said LA's division rival had it all wrong.

"That's OK, I'm sorry they feel that way, we didn't mean any disrespect toward them," Kershaw told reporters, according to the Los Angeles Times. "We're just trying to enjoy our good season. For me, if they were celebrating at our home field, they would have the right to do whatever they wanted."

Dodgers president Stan Kasten told ESPN Los Angeles the team thought the D-backs didn't want the players celebrating excessively in front of Arizona's fans. Chase Field was mostly empty when they took the plunge.

"I've never been around a celebration like this that didn't get excited and a little bit boisterous," Kasten was quoted as saying.

Past and present D-backs pitchers Daniel Hudson, David Hernandez and Micah Owings made sure to acknowledge the deed on Twitter:
